Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1460

Chapter 1454, 1460, means…

Unexpectedly, this Sun Crystal wasn’t obtained from Sera or Lefebvre, but directly from winning the championship.

Indeed, the brutal competition allowed professional beast tamers to grow faster. Thinking back to when he first registered, how could he possibly defeat competitors like Sera and Lefebvre? Just

as Qiao Sang was reminiscing about the Sun Crystal, Little Xunbao floated out of the bathroom while brushing its teeth, calling out indistinctly,

“Xunxun~”

You’re awake.

Qiao Sang looked at it, amused, “The competition’s over, why are you still brushing your teeth so diligently?”

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao put down its toothbrush and called out, indicating that Qiao Sang had forgotten, as it had a magazine shoot today. “

If you hadn’t mentioned it, I really would have forgotten,” Qiao Sang said without changing its expression, “How could I forget? I just didn’t know what time it was.”

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao called out, indicating that it was one o’clock in the afternoon, and they said they would send a special pet to pick it up.

“You’ve already booked it at 1 PM and even sent a special pet to pick you up. Why don’t you just teleport there?” Qiao Sang thought to herself, but didn’t say it aloud.

The other party naturally knew that Little Treasure could teleport, and sending a pet to pick her up was just to give her face.

Then, as if remembering something, she said in a low voice,

“I won’t go with you.”

She paused, then added, “I have something to do today.”

“Xunxun?” Little Treasure called out curiously, indicating what it was.

Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, glanced at Xia Lala sleeping soundly in the flowerpot, and lowered her voice, “We’re leaving soon, and I want to spend a little more time with Xia Lala before we go.”

Xia Lala had come with her to travel, but she had spent most of her time training, battling, and competing for the Master Challenge, and hadn’t had time to travel at all. Moreover, they had been staying in Tan Country, a place with few flowers and plants, for a long time, yet

Xia Lala hadn’t complained at all. She was leaving soon, and before leaving, she wanted to take Xia Lala to enjoy the sights.

After all, who knows when they’ll meet again after this separation?

Perhaps they’ll never see each other again .

Thinking of this, Qiao Sang’s heart was filled with sadness and reluctance, even diminishing the joy of obtaining the Sun Crystal.

“Xunxun,”

Little Xunbao felt a pang of sadness as well; it quite liked Xia Lala.

Then, it remembered something and called out,

“Xunxun?”

Couldn’t Xia Lala come with us?

“You know Xia Lala’s identity, do you think it’s possible?” Qiao Sang countered with a question.

“Xunxun,” Little Xunbao sighed, then its eyes lit up, and it called out again,

“Xunxun~”

It would come back early after the magazine shoot and play with Xia Lala too.

“Okay,” Qiao Sang smiled.

“Xunxun~”

Little Xunbao brushed its teeth and floated back towards the bathroom.

Qiao Sang leaned against the bed, closed the box containing the Sun Crystal, placed it aside, picked up her phone, opened her contacts, and scrolled to the page with the contact information for the tenth seat.

She stared at the phone number for the tenth seat, her fingertips hovering over it, but she hesitated to press the button.

Suddenly, she sensed something, turned her head, and saw that Xia Lala in the flowerpot had woken up sometime during the night, blinking her still sleepy eyes and staring at her.

“You’re awake?” Qiao Sang asked with a smile, pulling herself together from her thoughts.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia Lala floated out of the flowerpot, came to the bed, and found a comfortable spot to lie down next to Qiao Sang.

A refreshing fragrance filled her nostrils.

Qiao Sang sniffed and said, “How come you smell so much better?”

Before Xia Lala could answer, Gang Bao’s voice appeared in her mind:

“Gang Quan.”

It had already become fragrant yesterday.

Qiao Sang looked at Gangbao, only to see that it had also opened its eyes.

“Really?” Qiao Sang looked back at Xia Lala.

She had no recollection of it at all.

“Gangquan,”

Gangbao’s voice echoed in her mind.

It meant that it had noticed her after the competition yesterday, but perhaps she was too happy to notice because she won the championship.

Qiao Sang: “…”

Xia Lala woke up, sat up, and hesitated, seemingly reluctant to speak.

Qiao Sang noticed this and said, “It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it.”

Then, she smiled and changed the subject: “Do you want to go anywhere today? I heard that many varieties of flowers in the neighboring Food Kingdom smell like food. Want to go check it out?”

Tan Kingdom isn’t large; going to the neighboring country is just a matter of spatial teleportation for a small treasure hunt.

“Xia Xia!”

Xia Lala’s eyes suddenly lit up, and it nodded. Then, as if remembering something, it cautiously looked up at Qiao Sang and called out in a very soft voice:

“Xia Xia.”

Actually, it was about to evolve, which was why its scent was becoming more pleasant.

Although its voice was pitifully soft, Qiao Sang, now an A-level professional beast tamer, possessed superhuman senses and easily heard it. She was first startled, then exclaimed with delight, “This is good news!”

“Xia Xia…”

Xia Lala didn’t show any joy.

Qiao Sang was startled again, then asked, “Don’t you want to evolve?”

A very few pets do indeed dislike evolution. Some pets feel that after evolving, their size increases, their appetite increases, their living space increases, and their living costs increase, so they restrain themselves from evolving. Others prefer their original form and therefore don’t want to evolve. For Xia

Lala, the former was impossible; after all, it was Xia Lala. As long as it revealed its true form, wherever it went, there would probably be a bunch of people and pets giving it resources.

As for the latter, she remembered that even if Xia Lala evolved, it seemed only the color of the bud on its neck would change.

In a flash of thought, Xia Lala called out,

“Xia Xia.”

It didn’t want to evolve so early.

“Why?” Qiao Sang asked subconsciously.

After speaking, she felt it might involve privacy and quickly added, “It’s okay if you don’t want to say.”

Xia Lala showed a shy expression.

Was she…shy? Qiao Sang doubted her own eyes.

“Xia Xia.” Xia

Lala looked over, her face slightly flushed, hesitant to speak, but finally mustered the courage to call out, implying, “Didn’t you want to contract a beginner-level pet? If I evolve, you won’t consider me anymore.

” Qiao Sang: “?!?!”

What did I just hear?

What does that mean?

I want to contract a beginner-level pet?

Xia Lala thinks that if it evolves, I won’t consider it anymore?

Who am I considering?

Xia Lala?

Various thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. Qiao Sang’s eyes widened, shock written all over her face as she looked at Xia Lala in front of her. Belatedly realizing what she meant, she completely lost control of her expression:

“You, you—”

“Gang Quan.”

Before she could finish speaking, Gang Bao’s voice rang in her mind.

It meant it wanted to contract with her. (End of Chapter)
